GCN5

AAS104, ADA4, SWI9, histone acetyltransferase GCN5, KAT2, L000000684, YGR252W
Catalytic subunit of ADA and SAGA histone acetyltransferase complexes; modifies N-terminal lysines on histones H2B and H3; acetylates Rsc4p, a subunit of the RSC chromatin-remodeling complex, altering replication stress tolerance; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia; mutant displays reduced transcription elongation in the G-less-based run-on (GLRO) assay; greater involvement in repression of RNAPII-dependent transcription than in activation
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

RAD53

LSD1, MEC2, SPK1, serine/threonine/tyrosine protein kinase RAD53, L000001573, YPL153C
DNA damage response protein kinase; required for cell-cycle arrest in response to DNA damage; activated by trans autophosphorylation when interacting with hyperphosphorylated Rad9p; also interacts with ARS1 and plays a role in initiation of DNA replication; activates the downstream kinase Dun1p; differentially senses mtDNA depletion and mitochondrial ROS; required for regulation of copper genes in response to DNA-damaging agents; relocalizes to cytosol in response to hyoxia
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Lethality

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in lethality when combined in the same cell under a given condition.

A role for Gcn5 in replication-coupled nucleosome assembly.

Burgess RJ, Zhou H, Han J, Zhang Z

Acetylation of lysine residues at the H3 N terminus is proposed to function in replication-coupled (RC) nucleosome assembly, a process critical for the inheritance of epigenetic information and maintenance of genome stability. However, the role of H3 N-terminal lysine acetylation and the corresponding lysine acetyltransferase (KAT) in RC nucleosome assembly are not known. Here we show that Gcn5, a KAT ... [more]
